Unless you are a high roller. Alcohol is just not available to the folks who have seats outside the boxes.
Y'all do realize the stadium has a nice bar that is open everyday except during home games right? In fact during road games there are drink specials and you can get dollar drinks every time Baylor scores a TD.

My point is that it is hypocritical.
Well, fiscally smart hasn't been a label that has been applied to Baylor in a while..........laughngrin said:
Selling alcohol on game days in the stadium would also help keep butts in seats to the end of the game. Sure, it's not ideal that we would need to do that to keep fans there, but it's a fact. The students leave to go drink and watch the rest on TV. Some of the alumni leave to go drink and watch the rest on TV. It's just the way it is. If they want to give people a wristband that has three holes to punch for each beer, that's fine. We don't need a bunch of drunk fans. But the hardline stance on something 90% of adults are doing anyway seems pretty silly and fiscally stupid to me - not to mention what it does to the fans staying throughout the game. Just my two cents.

Lol. Not happening along with several other things that would downgrade the "Christian image" of Baylor.

Seriously, the one thing I hate about most athletic events are the drunks in the stands. Even if they're "our" drunks, they take the fun out of the game when they go over the top, particularly if I've brought the wife or family.
You would lose as many Baylor fans in the seats as you would get if beer were sold at the games.

A business risk worth taking. Guarantee you that it's more dangerous and uncontrolled at tailgates than in the stadium.Michibear said:

Some of the drunkest people I've ever seen at games have been at games where alcohol isn't being sold. If someone wants to get black out drunk, they're going to do it whether there is booze being sold or not.Michibear said:
